I have been waiting for this deal to come around again. I mainly buy Blackmores vitamins and the 180 capsules sustained release multivitamins which are $31.23 again (I think the last time it was at this price was mid year some time).
ps: not all vitamins are sold at "50%" off as per comments below.
So these aren't 100% vitamins, only 50% the effect? :)
Buy them from Vitacost. Super cheap quality vitamins. Takes around 2 weeks for shipping though..
No matches were found for "blackmores".
Search for the specific vitamin supplement that you need, not the brand. The majority of the stuff Vitacost stock are much better than the junk they sell in Australia and only cost a fraction of the price. Compare the ingredients & amount per serving and you'll never want to buy vitamins locally again.
Because Vitacost don't have Blackmores, or Swisse, or any of the brands we are more familiar with here in Australia. You would either have to research for the equivalent product, or change to something new. I'd rather not personally but others might be fine with it.
Nevermind. I'm an idiot. :)
Blackmores,Swisse,etc. are all AU local quality brand.You wont find them selling overseas.
Brands like vitacost(own),nature's way,rainbow light,optimum nutrition,avalon organics,just name a few,are of good quality there.
"local quality"
Heh…
NOW Foods are also highly regarded.
edit: nevermind, it looks like they've pulled their products from Vitacost.

Unfortunately, NOW Foods has prevented us from carrying their products at this time. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause.
You can still get Now Foods from iHerb. The Now Foods products I have tried are good, but haven't tried their vitamins, I've bought beauty products mainly and topical oils. The products and quality are recommendable, and repeat buys.
I take swisse mens multi and omega 3 and really do notice a difference. keeps my skin healthy and less fatigued.
And your coat shiny? ;)
Is this online only… or can i get them at my local tomorrow as well for half price?
Nah you can get it at your local Chemist Warehouse for half price aswell, I'm here right now lol.
Thanks! Just went to Burwood (NSW), stocked up on the necessary things :)
I called earlier asking about the fish oil capsules. He said it's available tommorrow (so atleast they are)
They're already half price instore right now.
sorry I meant still available.
The Ostevit Vitamin D ones, that I use, don't seem to have the 50% off….
Vitacost bro
Berocca's not on sale =(
Thank you! Saved me a fair bit of cash.
Hi SBOB
I like you, mate.
You fail to mention beside the shiny coat, it also provide clean fresh mouth breath. :)
Merry Xmas , mate.
Cheers
When does the sale end?
I rang a store and they said till 6th Jan
Centrum don't appear to be 50% off based on these prices http://www.chemistwarehouse.com.au/category.asp?id=520
Thanks. Just bought 3 boxes of prenatal vitamins.
Better to buy online, than going to the store and find that they don't have what you want instore.
And your male…
That's the true ozbargain spirit ;)
Some of the comments here remind me that vitamins are like religion; everyone's is the best and no discussion will be entered into. I was born a Blackmores, I shall die a Blackmores, etc.
I have my favourite brand but I did look at the home brand Vitacost ones today. They were well priced and the top of the range male was comparable to the one I usually buy, so I might give it a go.
You just have to remember that "oils ain't oils" as John Laws used to say and their are different level of effectiveness of ingredients, such as CoQ10 made from Ubiqui(none) or made from Ubiqui(nol). The first is cheap and realtively ineffectual in small amours but you can still put CoQ10 on your bottle, just like you can with Ubiqui(nol).
Then you have to look at the manufacturing process, including how all the ingredients are put together and whether the tablets are entric coated and on and on it goes.
So, be open to different supplements, but don't necessarily assume that the tub of 400 Omega 3 tablets for $10 is the same a smaller bottle for more money, or that Ricky Ponting's endorsement is the gold standard.
Great deal, makes a huge difference getting half-price on my omega 3 :)
well said Daabido
I was just at the Marrickville Chemist Warehouse.
There was a mother and son that bought 15 large bottles of vitamins.
The girl behind the counter had to get approval for the large quantity, but it wasn't a problem.
Went into a store today before I saw this post, saw absolutely no signage about this deal. Will go back in a couple deals for the 50% off Cranberry!
Most of the the Chemist Warehouse price is already 10-30% off the "RRP" on a daily basis. This is how they make you perceive you are getting items at "warehouse" prices. This 50% adds about an extra 10-20% off their prices, good deal but not an absolute bargain!
Hmm not sure about the spirulina tablets they sell :/
For anyone in WA, there is buy one get one free on all vitamins at wizard warehouse

They have blackmores and all the other "named brands" i am aware of
don't waste money on vitamins
They are just expensive urine.
I believe you meant to say "self improvement is masturbation"
Chemist warehouse take 50% off the suppliers RRP not their normal price so just be careful because sometimes your local chemist can have a better price
Time to stock up as this only really comes round twice, maybe three times a year. On the products I buy this deal saves me heaps.
